  1. iv'e seen P. squarrosa up here but never aurivella
  2. How does this scalycap like its climate? I mean how does it differ down there to up here as i know its only a couple of degrees but its cooler and wetter here in ther north west? so will it grow up here?
  3. on another note found this on the big dead trunk, was only small 2/3 weeks ago last time i was there and now seems to be either eaten or in decline do you know what it is? ps any ideas on the little beasties making it there home also?
  4. i might hold you to that:biggrin: there's some that are a definate no no for climbing but there's still some nice healthy specimens does seem though like every year there are a couple of massive summer limb drops from these beasties!
  5. you mean this bit?
  6. could spend days in that place:thumbup: got a bit snap happy tonight though, next time going to focus on quality of finds (more time looking) might even take the kit and climb some i haven't already climbed:biggrin:
  7. the beech still growing on with one limb left, and the elephant ears split out thriving:thumbup:
  8. spot the pigs head:thumbup1:
  9. went back to big wood again tonight and found something weird on the tree with the adventitious root in the central decay cavity. as anyone heard of two species growing together? sycamore growing on a beech?
  10. or like me go to uni and get it free through the athens account:thumbup:
  11. That would be a different story!
  12. All interesting stuff and a good read:thumbup: All i know is the way i cooked it sure did taste nice:biggrin:
  13. it probably is, i can definately see the similarities in all the images posted i think i'm just trying to over complicate things:blushing: i have a weird way of thinking and sometimes miss things that are right in front of my nose, but don't worry i'll get there:thumbup:
  14. are these symptoms synonymous with other fungi, or does this particular rotter have its own unique "style" i mean does the pattern of decay from mesenterica hold any similarities with other types of fungi that have the same rot properties? does that make sense?
  15. hint hint:blushing: how does that specific wound relate to the tripe? what makes it different?
  16. me too, its been a valuable tool so far:thumbup:
  17. mmmmmmmm beafsteak:eating:
  18. as in if that was the first time you had come across this tree and seen that wound would you have immediately gone mmm Auricularia mesenterica me thinks? and if so how? is that not like any normal wound:blush: i'm still in the early stages of trying to grasy this body language thing, its taking time but eventually will stick:thumbup:
  19. is that last pic the result of tripe without us actually seeing the physical evidence (FB)? as in "the body language"
  20. Thanks Paul for the bit of the update and link to current research to paul:thumbup: Found a nice little website through uni that has a lot of useful stuff on it. not sure if people know of it or not but here it is Welcome to the Arboricultural Information Exchange. Determination of the plasticity index of a clay soil 10 Part One: % of soil sample less than
  21. and it all came from outer space anyway:blink:
  22. i take it your voting yes to AV then:001_rolleyes:
  23. you could brand your initials into the wound:001_rolleyes:
  24. why not just plant more anyway, without taking existing ones down unless its really necessary AND PLANT THEM PROPERLY, in a space were they can be left in peace:thumbup:
